This is a big change towards rationalization of renewables but hidden within that is a removal of the energy storage mandate,” George Hilton, research and analysis manager at S&P Global, tells ESS News. S&P Global estimates that the storage mandate has driven between 50 and 75% of domestic demand.
S&P Global estimates that the storage mandate has driven between 50 and 75% of domestic demand. With China accounting for around 56% of the global energy storage demand in 2024, the impact of such a policy change will be massive.
“China was on-track to install over 60% of all utility scale storage globally in 2025 and so in the absence of further policy changes, about 45% of global demand has just been wiped away,” Hilton says. The ripple effect on the global demand-supply balance will involve further downward pressure on energy storage prices.
S&P Global expects the move to reverberate throughout the global battery energy storage supply chain, further driving down prices that are already at historically low levels. New renewable energy plants in China will no longer be required to build storage in order to secure development rights and grid connection.
